    It's hard to pinpoint exact keyword density ranges. It's usually sufficient to simply use the keyword a few times in the content, I wouldn't go crazy trying to figure out the exact density. Just write naturally and don't try to do any keyword stuffing. Make sure to put the keyword in the title tag once (but add other filler words to it as well) and once in the meta description. Also use synonyms as Hummingbird targets this and you can target more than one keyword on a page.

    I'm agree with you. But I would like to suggest you that just forget about keyword density, and write best content which must be sharable by maximum readers. Readers are never check density of your keyword.
    If you content is fresh and interesting, then Google will help you to grow up your page with ignoring it's keyword density.

    keyword density is the percentage of time a keyword on a web page compared to the total number of words on the page. It was an important factor in how a page was ranked.

    keyword Density should be between 1.5% to 3 %. But I think 1.5% is the best keyword Density. Think you have 5 keyword then you can repeat 3times. And that's the best.

    It is less than upt 2% only. If you use 3 to 5 percentage, then you are doing stuffing. And Google is very strict against Spam.

    500 Words @2% = 10 Keywords
    400 Words @2% = 8 Keywords

    If you use 5% of keywords density, then it will increase no. of keywords like:

    ==================================
    500 Words @5% = 25 Keywords
    400 Words @5% = 20 Keywords

    You say, is it ok?

    Don't stuff keyword in articles. The recommended keyword density is <3.

    You should give importance to content length. Write articles with more than 500 words. Keyword will be included naturally.

    Also try to include the keyword in the beginning of title, slug and meta description.

    Google give more importance to content length, not to keyword density.

    In reality there is no universal keyword density percentage, it depends. It is always recommend to write naturally, which is the best practice.
    It's also depends on several other factors.
    check this guide to get some idea and for a free keyword density analysis tool.

    Current thinking is between 1-3%. However you can also use latent semantics, similar keywords to reinforce the message in terms of how search engines view your page.
